H. -.L BYRNE SAWING UNIT ATTACHMENT FOR TRACTORS loops 18 and contacts-with" the front side of the radiator 1l and' functions as a hinge pintle for the sawing' unit and to prevent the yoke 1T trom having any rearward movement with respect to the radiator 1 and tank 2.

The frame S ofthe sawing unit is connectedl to thel bar 25 by hinge. straps 26, and the trame is adapted to be supported" in: hori- VZ'ontal position by brackets 27 which are secured to the: under sidethereot as at Q8 and Contact with the 'front side of the radiator 1. The r'earend ot the guard rail' 16b slidably passesI through an eye 29 carried by the bar 25.

Froml the foregoing and accompanying drawing', it will be understood that the sawing. unitis -hingedly supported from and' at 'the frontside of the radiator 1, that it is [adapted to'be supported in horizontal posijtion for use by the yoke 17, Ybar 25 and brackets 2'( ,f and,V that it may be supported in an upwardly and rearwardly inclined position against the radiator 1 when notin use.

in the raciator and associated-parts. .In

Figure 1 the sawingunit is shown by solid lines'in position for usev and by dotted lines inv foldedposition.,V The sawing unit is so firmly supported when in position for use asteV obviate the necessity of the use of `ground engaging props or legs or the like.

It should be understood that the drawing is merely illustrative and does not pretend to pjive exact proportions. Furthermore, the, said drawing is illustrative ot a preferred construction, it being in v expectation that 'arious Changes and modifications may be made without departingr from the spirit and scope of my invention.

lVhat is claimed is:-

1. In combination. a tractor. a` yoke. em-

bracing' and suspended from the radiator of the tractor, means coolw-ratiirgr with the yoke and radiator to secure they `voke againsty roeking` movement on the radiator. a .f-Iawing unit pivotally onnected to Isaid inea z. andmeinbers secured to the sawing unit and eontacting with the radiator to limit the pivotal movement of the sawing unit in a downward direction.

7 In combination, a tractor, a yoke suspended from the radiator of the tractor and lia-vingt its side portions positioned at the lateral sides of the radiator. said .side portiene` being provided at their lower ends with lbrwardly extending loops and rearwardly extending` arms, a bar secured to the arms an d contacting with the rear lside of the radiator, a. bar carried by the loops and contacting with the front side ot the radiator. said bars holding;` the `iv'oke against. roekinpY movement on the radiator, and a sawinr unit connected to the yoke.
